Chapter 38 Female Scholar

It really looks like a war.

Except for the bathroom, the entire first floor has no room. All the rooms, including the original kitchen, have been demolished and merged into one piece.

More than a dozen people gathered in the middle of the living room to work, each with one computer. There was no uniform arrangement. They were arranged in a mess according to personal preferences. In addition, every desk was full of messy documents and gadgets. The entire first floor doesn't look like an office at all, but more like a recycling station.

The office areas are piled together, leaving some corner areas free, one of which is the reception area, with sofas, TVs and game consoles, and there are still half-paused games on the TV screen.

The men in the uniform men's nest were all dumbfounded when they saw Zhu Liangcheng walking with Huang Ying.

Beautiful, so beautiful!

Especially the distinctive temperament, which is so outstanding!

One of them was a tall, thin man who shrank behind the computer screen in shame and peeped secretly from the crack of the computer screen.

"Don't worry, we are all boring tech houses here." Zhu Liangcheng laughed at himself.

"Come on, you can sit here first, there are games on the mobile phone on the table, you can play it yourself."

He himself didn't have much time to stay to greet Huang Ying, and he also had his own work to do.

Huang Ying snorted and watched Zhu Liangcheng return to the battlefield.

Sitting on the sofa in the reception area, she wanted to watch TV to pass the time, but halfway through the game on TV, she didn't dare to move, for fear of accidentally angering these techies.

She had heard many people say that in the hearts of otaku, between game saves and girls, they would choose the former without hesitation.

On the table are more than a dozen different models and generations of Apple iPhones, as well as several new iPads. Some of them are intact, while others are disassembled and thrown on the table at will. This made Huang Ying feel a little wasteful.

You know, in China, many people even make a fuss about selling their kidneys in order to buy an iPhone.

Zhu Liangcheng said just now that there are games on the phone, so Huang Ying took an iPhone with a good appearance. After lighting the screen, she found that there were two applications in it. One was called WeChat, with a chat logo, and another The model is called Cut the Rope, and the icon is a cute and playful little green monster.

Entering the picture of cutting the rope, without music, Huang Ying chose to enter the game.

The game has many different levels, but currently only the first level of the cardboard box on the far left can be selected.

The entire game process is very simple, and there is nothing difficult to understand. Huang Ying also quickly passed the first level with an obvious novice guidance nature and learned about this game. She found it very interesting, especially the green little monster opened his mouth wide. , the look of swallowing candy in the stomach is very real and interesting.

Little girls, they all have no resistance to such cute gadgets.

The first few levels are not difficult, they are all to guide the novice to learn the skills of the game, and the whole game is also very simple, just use cutting the rope, let the candy move to get the stars, and finally fall into the mouth of the little monster to pass the level , the more stars the better.

When I was idle, Huang Ying started to play this game, and while playing, she was immersed in it unconsciously, passing the past one level at a time.

Yang Huan retreated upstairs alone.

In the past week, the team of Zhu Liangcheng and Wang Lin has expanded from the original six people to the current eighteen people. The scale has expanded rapidly and their ability to handle affairs is also very strong.

No, in just a week, they followed Yang Huan's request and made a mobile app he named WeChat, which currently has the function of sending and receiving messages and pictures through traffic, which is the same as WhatsApp. But this software will be distributed to Apple, Blackberry, Android and other platforms for free for users to use.

In the future, some other interesting functions will be added successively, such as Moments and Shake. In addition, Yang Huan has already asked them to start designing some interesting expressions, which will further increase its competitiveness.

Yang Huan has used this app himself. The interface is very simple. Not only does it not have any advertisements now, but it will not add any advertisements in the future. The response is very fast, and the user experience is quite good. After all, Yang Huan personally checks it.

Although I don't know how to make this application, Yang Huan still has a say in whether it is good or not.

At present, this software has entered the final stage of improvement, and has started internal trial, and can be further opened for download at any time.

What really gave Yang Huan a headache was the game of cutting the rope.

Zhu Liangcheng, Wang Lin and others did follow Yang Huan's request, but they still failed to do many things.

In the final analysis, they still don't understand what Yang Huan wants.

This time, Yang Huan decided to explain more clearly and directly, so he retreated and wrote down some of his thoughts.

Ten minutes after Huang Ying arrived, Yang Huan walked downstairs.

Go downstairs, walk directly to the living room, and shout, "Meeting."

Originally, the boring otaku in the living room who were sitting in front of the monitor, or secretly looking at Huang Ying playing games in the corner, suddenly surrounded them with Yang Huan as the core.

Yang Huan acted resolutely and did what he said.

They made WeChat in a week, and he gave everyone a £5,000 bonus, enough money to buy a car in the comfort of Southampton.

For such a boss, even if the requirements are stricter, they are all happy.

Huang Ying, who was originally playing the game, heard Yang Huan's shout, put down her phone, stood up, and walked over.

"I am very dissatisfied with the development progress of the game team, but what makes me even more dissatisfied is that you have absolutely no idea what the current mobile game players want, you are just immersed in your own world, making your own game."

Having said that, Yang Huan shook his head and said, "Perhaps, you are happy, but users are not happy, so I am even more upset!"

His voice was so hard at the end that everyone present began to feel nervous.

Yang Huan is their parents, which makes Yang Huan unhappy. They all have to get out of the way, and the high-paying jobs are gone. Don't expect promotions and salary increases. As for Bai Fumei, don't even think about it.

"Any game must first figure out which players we are targeting, ordinary players and experienced players, the former just want to complete the game and get some simple happiness from the game, they won't spend any money for the game A penny, and the latter type of player, they are willing to spend money, even spending money.”

Free plus in-app purchases has become a trend in Yang Huan's previous life in 2014, and Yang Huan himself has played a lot of in-app purchase mobile games, and he also knows a lot of related things.

It can even be said that in terms of free plus in-app purchases, China has always done quite well. The giant Shi Yuzhu in the past and Tencent’s Tiantian series in the back are quite good cases of in-app purchases. Yang Huan is too familiar with this. .

"As a free-to-play game with in-app purchases, the most fundamental and core thing is ordinary players. How to attract more ordinary players, let them enter this game, and build a reasonable, orderly and balanced game environment for them? The key, because all veteran players are born from ordinary players."

Many in-app purchase games are easy to lose balance because they are too accommodating to paying players, which is not a long-term solution.

"This requires us to understand and figure out what players are after in the game."

"I think it's nothing more than those elements, challenge, overcome some difficulties, prove one's ability, and compete with one's friends, stand out from the competition, the purpose is to show off, and in the final analysis, it is to prove that you are better than Others are strong, and then gain a sense of accomplishment and superiority.”

"It's like this in China, it's like that in Europe, it's like that in the U.S., it's like that all over the world, who isn't?"

Zhu Liangcheng, Wang Lin and the others all listened silently. They all had to admit that at least they were far worse than Yang Huan when it came to pondering and understanding the psychology of gamers. At least they were not addicted to games, and Yang Huan has.

"Players' requirements for a game are actually very simple, control and anticipation, they hope that their control can get the expected feedback, just like when they shoot a gun at the wall, they hope that there will be bullet holes in the wall, They swipe their fingers on the phone screen and expect to see the rope snap."

"So, when they see our little monster opening its mouth to eat candy, they should at least hear a wow, and when they see the little monster swallowing the candy, they should at least chew 's voice, it's better to have a contented and cute expression."

When Wang Lin heard this, he suddenly realized that he had always felt that there was a problem, but he just couldn't figure out where the problem was.

Now that Yang Huan mentioned this, he immediately understood that the problem lies in the details.

"Write it down, hurry up, write down these words from Master Huan."

After Zhu Liangcheng heard Wang Lin's words, he shook his cell phone, indicating that he was already recording.

Yang Huan smiled at this eye-catching guy, this kid has a future.

"Also, we are Chinese. I don't like those messy little monsters. After thinking about it, I made a dragon, a cute cartoon dragon. I like this. It's better to make it green and environmentally friendly."

Zhu Liangcheng also took note of this.

If they were a little worried about Yang Huan before, thinking that Yang Huan was a wealthy man who acted recklessly, then after a week, they had to admit that the core soul of the whole studio was Yang Huan.

Without his guiding opinions, WeChat could not be what it is now, and the game of cutting the rope would not be possible. With this simple and easy-to-operate mobile game, coupled with Yang Huan's treatment of players As long as the design is well designed, I believe that there should be a chance to make a small fire.

"I also want to say that when you design games, you ignore a very, very important consumer group."

Zhu Liangcheng and others were stunned when they heard it. When they designed the game architecture, they had already taken the consumer group into consideration.

Yang Huan patted his forehead with an expression that I knew you didn't understand. He pointed to Huang Ying, who had been listening nearby, and beckoned, "You, come here."

"Me?" Huang Ying was very surprised.

"Yes, it's you." Yang Huan waved again, "Come here."

Huang Ying was stared at by more than a dozen men, and she felt uncomfortable, but she moved away and walked to Yang Huan's side.

"Tell me, how did you feel when you played this game just now?"

Huang Ying was a little hesitant. She felt that Yang Huan was reprimanding the employees, and Zhu Liangcheng had a good impression on her just now. She didn't want to get in trouble, so she didn't dare to say more.

Seeing her like this, Zhu Liangcheng smiled, "It's okay, Miss Huang, Young Master Huan has no other meaning, if you have anything to say, just say it, it's good, it will also help us, and when we get the research and development bonus, we will treat you to eat. Feast."

"Yes, you can say whatever." Wang Lin also smiled and encouraged.

"That's right, beauties have privileges, so don't be afraid of making mistakes."

Someone was teasing and teasing the beauty, and the atmosphere suddenly became cheerful, and the whole hall burst into laughter.

"I think the game is ok, especially some of the physical details are well done, quite impressive, but the overall feeling is a bit hard and not soft enough, and I think that little candy-eating thing can be designed It has to be cuter and cuter, girls, they all like this, and..."

Huang Ying raised her head and looked at Yang Huan. What Yang Huan said just now completely broke her impression of Yang Huan.

At the very least, Yang Huan doesn't look like that kind of upstart.

"...I think what he said just now is right. Players should be given more positive feedback and interaction."

This suddenly made Zhu Liangcheng and others wish they could dig a hole and get in, because all the advantages mentioned by Huang Ying were all instructed and requested by Yang Huan before, and the problems mentioned were not reminded by Yang Huan. , which they ignored.

In other words, what Yang Huan asked for, they did well, but what Yang Huan didn't ask for, they made a mess.

"Oh, by the way, there is another thing I don't feel very good about is that the levels are designed too simple."

Huang Ying's addition directly made Zhu Liangcheng and others wish they could hit the wall directly.

too easy?

Many of the levels were designed by their group of people who spent a few days and racked their brains.

Simple?

Yang Huan also looked at Huang Ying seriously for the first time. Could she be the legendary female scholar?
